The subject appears to be fairly unremarkable, with the two claims to notability being that he is running for major of Chicago, and that he was given a local award. He does have coverage in the local press, but that is normal for candidates for significant local appointments, and WP:Politician does indicate that running for major by itself it not notable. There are no sources beyond the local press, and I wonder why people outside of Chicago would be interested. SilkTork *Tea time 12:09, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
